I'm of the opinion that some coaches just should not be interviewed in the aftermath of a defeat like yesterdays! To blame some players as being "soft" begs the response: "well WHO picked 'em mate???!!!"
To give comfort to our future opponents via the press conference is unfortunate to say the least. But I'm sure Ross will improve in this area (just as he will in the playing area too)
An unfortunate remark - "Soft"

agree i don't have a problem with lYon calling players soft.wasoncestkil58 wrote:Don't have a problem with what Lyon said. Until we accept that we have probably only six or seven players who put in regularly and the rest leave it up to too few we will always be a middle of the road team. If the truth hurts it is up to the players to prove Lyon wrong.
over the last few years the saints have always had problems with the the last 11 players in the 22.

What you do want Lyon to do Jiggster?
Spout off some bullshyte spin that "we were beaten by a better side" and not face reality?
Don't you think most of our team need a severe arselicking through whatever means may work?
It seems that those squibs (about 3/4 of our team) just can't get it through to their thick heads what's required to play a game of footy.
Using the old GT adage, it was 80% of the players, 20% effort, 80% of the time!
